300lbs... goal is to lose half?

mackleemoose · December 2016

Basically I'm 300 lbs and my overall goal is to lose half, so 150. I'm 5'10 btw. I need as much motivation as possible and possibly tips from people have have huge weight loss goals and have been successful.

I didn't have to lose that much, but I always liked setting smaller goals that I could celebrate each month or two. That's me though.

If you stay consistent and log your food accurately, you'll nail this.

That is my goal too. Let's work on this together. I started on 12/26. Mondays are my weigh-in days, although i won't weigh in every week. Please friend me.

I lost before with MFP and then life happened, so I 'm back now. What worked for me was measuring, logging, pre-planning and weight-lifting. By being cnsistent, the weight just fell off. I will be doing mini-goals along the way.

I am starting out heavier, but would love to have a motivation buddy.

I started at 275 and got down to 185 before a relapse. I'd say weigh every day, log it once a week, count every calorie that goes into your mouth. Take a look at my profile -- I found that mini goals (every five pounds) and rewards for the mid-way points were helpful. Good luck!
